address Chunk

1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.3.3.2

This object returns an opaque chunk of the address table. The instance specifies a chunk of the address table. Each chunk can be interpreted as an array of 41 records of the form: { macAddress[6bytes], port number[2bytes], permanence[2bytes] }. Address Port Perm 00 080009001234 1 Dynamic(0x0000) 01 080009002345 2 Dynamic(0x0000) 02 000000000000 EMPTY(0x8000) Dynamic(0x0000) 03 080009003456 1 Dynamic(0x0000) 04 000000000000 1 Dynamic(0x0000) 05 080009009876 EMPTY(0x8000) Dynamic(0x0000) 06 080009004567 EMPTY(0x8000) Static(0x0008) 07 080009041d08 ... ... ... 40 080009005678 EOL(0x4000) Permanent(0x0000) A value of EMPTY in the Port field indicates an aged out table entry. A value of EOL in the Port field indicates that it is the last entry in the table. Of course, EOL will only be seen in the last entry. EOL and EMPTY are AND-able bit fields. The Disposition and Address are meaningless if Port is EMPTY. When instance=1 is used on a Set, the agent clears the table prior to setting any addresses. On subsequent Sets, the agent adds the specified addresses. If a Set starts at instance > 1, the specified addresses will be added to the table without first clearing the table. Addresses are already in the table are deleted and then readded.
